They both knew the day was coming. They were talking about it long before Kurt even got his acceptance letter to NYADA. Kurt would go to New York and he would wait for Blaine. Blaine would follow him in a year, either at NYADA or another nearby school. That is what they decided.

Together.

Their plan somewhat eased their minds, but there was still that year where Kurt wouldn’t see Blaine everyday. That was going to be the hardest part. He could learn to live in a new place, he could make new friends, no problem.

But leaving his room everyday knowing he wasn’t going to see Blaine’s infectious smile broke his heart more everyday.

So as the number of school days wind down, Kurt does his best to focus on the time they have, and not on his impending departure. They still have the summer.

He is surprised, then, when Blaine wants him to meet him in the auditorium. With the rest of glee club seated in a semicircle behind him to harmonize, Blaine takes center stage and begins to sing.

You got to leave me now
You got to go alone
You got to chase a dream
One that's all your own
Before it slips away

When you're flyin' high
Take my heart along
I'll be the harmony
To every lonely song
That you learn to play

When you're soarin' through the air
I'll be your solid ground
Take every chance you dare
I'll still be there
When you come back down
When you come back down

I'll keep lookin' up
Awaitin' your return
My greatest fear will be
That you will crash and burn
And I won't feel your fire

I'll be the other hand
That always holds the line
Connectin' in between
Your sweet heart and mine
I'm strung out on that wire

And I'll be on the other end
To hear you when you call
Angel, you were born to fly
If you get too high
I'll catch you when you fall
I'll catch you when you fall

Your memory's the sunshine every new day brings
I know the sky is calling
Angel, let me help you with your wings

When you're soarin' through the air
I'll be your solid ground
Take every chance you dare
I'll still be there
When you come back down

Take every chance you dare,
I'll still be there
When you come back down
When you come back down

The tears flow freely for Kurt; he isn’t ashamed. He’ll miss his friends, his Blaine. But it is his turn. It is time for his dream to take flight, to soar, to take him places he’d never even dreamed.

“I’ll be there,” Blaine says. “As long as you want me, I’ll be there.”

It's raining on my face again. I've never heard the song, but I read the first three lines and was tearing up. I think I need to go listen now. Wonderful!! This is the exact kind of thing I can see Blaine doing.
